Towards Smarter Decision Making
Information about our cities is collected by various methods and tools by private and public authorities but this information is not adequately accessible to planners and decision-makers 'ongoing" throughout the planning process and the project lifecycle. Collecting data effectively will produce different simulations regarding density, energy use, media Social etc. to assist the national, district, and municipal level better decision making. Israel Planning Administration is conducting public research regarding the digital transformation from "excel sheets and GIS stand-alone maps" of data towards a "Digital twin" vision using various tools and processes in order to improve the process and quality of urban planning.
